Player and Manager of the Month for October - Premier League


Manager of the Month:
Roy Hodgson - Fulham F.C.


Player of the Month:
Robin van Persie - Arsenal F.C.

With Arsenal going unbeaten in the month of October, Robin van Persie has been a big part of that, hitting the back of the net 5 times and assisting 2 times.

This is van Persie's second Player of the Month award in the Premier League after picking one up in November of 2005, which was his second year as an Arsenal player.

Fulham manager, Roy Hodgson, has had a very impressive month, leading his squad to an unbeaten month even though having some very hard fixtures in his teams schedule. Fulham's most recent impressive win came on Halloween October 31st, 2009 against Liverpool winning 3-1 at home, Zamora, Nevland and Dempsey picking up the goals.


This will be award number 3 for Hodgson, picking up his first award while managing Blackburn Rovers in August of 1997 and his second coming in December of the same year.

Cheers.
